Q.3. What is the difference between the BURN OUT POLICY and the 3 PILOT NON-ULR REST STRATEGY? And
to which pairing is the BURN OUT POLICY currently applied?
A.3. Specific pairings authorised by DSVP-FO may be augmented by an additional flight crew member for the
purpose of extending the FDP. These specific parings should have the burn out policy applied to the augmenting
crew member. Burn out policy currently applied to Harare-Lusaka-Dubai sector only, as per currently effective FCN
2012-001, part of aircraft documentation. All other 3 man crew operations i.e those to the far east, should adhere as
closely as possible to the rest strategy as determined in the RAIG, section 2.6.1, i.e equal inflight rest for all 3 crew
members.
